A Comprehensive X-ray Characterization of the Pulsar Wind Nebula CTB 87: Evidence for Reverse-Shock Interaction from Its X-ray and Broadband Emissions
We present a comprehensive X-ray study of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) CTB 87, utilizing new NuSTAR observations and archival Chandra and XMM-Newton data. Our joint analysis reveals that the PWN's X-ray spectrum exhibits significant curvature, well described by a broken or cutoff power law. The broken power-law fit yie...
